They're designed to sustain an airliner crashing into it so I guess bomb or missile is okay, although that's another story if that would happen from inside the reactor.

Interesting, but I doubt these are a majority.

I also don't think a plane is comparable to warfare in this aspect, a falling plane is an accident (or a relatively cheap act of terror), a missile can be a ballistic one, I don't think you can protect anything above ground from targeted destruction intent
